Automated Deduction - A Basis for Applications Volume I Foundations - Calculi and Methods Volume II Systems and Implementation Techniques Volume III Applications

We are invited to deal with mathematical activity in a sys­ tematic way [ ... ] one does expect and look for pleasant surprises in this requirement of a novel combination of psy­ chology, logic, mathematics and technology. Hao Wang, 1970, quoted from(Wang, 1970). The field of mathematics has been a key application area for automated theorem proving from the start, in fact the very first automatically found the­ orem was that the sum of two even numbers is even (Davis, 1983). The field of automat
